New here! Few Questions....

[jbizzle22]

Hello everyone...this site is awesome so far. I can't believe there is that much info. on car detailing. I did have a few questions to start off. (pretty big one actually)...

I have been contimplating what all would be involved in starting an actual detailing business. I have no idea what my expectations should be or where to start. I have no prior experience, but I'm motivated to learn. If there is anyone here that is willing to point me in the right direction, I would be forever grateful!

Who knows, it might turn out that it's not for me, but I at least want to see what is involved in a successful business. I'll be getting out of the Air Force in a couple years, and moving to Pensacola, FL. Should be a nice sunny place to have business year-round.

Any help/tips/anything would be great!

Thanks!

Welcome to Autopia

I would start by gaining experience before considering a business or practising on other peoples cars.

Detailing is not rocket science but it is skilled work, time-patients-techniques are the key skills

Oh definitely...it's not something I'm going to start tomorrow...that's kinda what I wanted to know I guess...how do you know your ready to start charging someone? I guess that, besides practice, is the first actual step...
